Have you tried scanning for spyware? There are many free ones out there. I found this guide pretty helpful, hope this helps. http://www.basicspywaretips.com/getridofspyware.html

You managed to download a page hijacker! Either you downloaded some worthless trinket and didnt read the contract or you picked it up from some foolish file sharing program, one of those that all the morons insist is safe! Type the name of the page followed by the word removal in your search engine. You will also need to figure out what garbage you downloaded and remove it if this is how you got it!

I assume that you are running antivirus software. First, go to www.download.com. This is a very useful site; it contains a large assortment of tools to assist you. Now, enter Ad-Aware into Search (in Windows software); download it, and save to your desktop. Next, enter Spybot Search and Destroy, download to your desktop. Finally, if you are NOT running an antivirus app, search and download AVG Antivirus (free edition). All three apps are freeware. Install and run Spybot and Ad-Aware, follow the prompts and let the apps decide what to remove. If you don't have antivirus, run the AVG installer. Re-set your homepage, and you should be good to go.

sounds like you have some spyware. you need to run an anti-virus scan and also an anti-spyware. after that, you should be able to reset your homepage. good luck!
